Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Meta-commentary—-an indigenous communicative act particular to one Jewish community participating in a Havurah (fellowship)-—is examined for its rule, premise and ritual structure. Meta-commentary is shown to provide participants with a way of informing, regulating and arguing. Applying a rules theory to meta-commentary (Carbaugh, 1988) demonstrates how the cultural values integrated throughout communicative actions are representative of a democratic scene. Moore’s and Myerhoff’s (1977) categories for understanding collective ritual reveal how the ritual form and function of meta-commentary is linked to a cultural discourse for structuring participation in this speech community. This discourse emphasizes particular ways of communicating as a member of this group and emphasizes the cultural symbol “community.”
